Tipping Point

This comes to us from my friends, the captain and crew of the Barco Sin Vela II. I think of it as more of a metaphor, but it's a real boat.

Opus #6 said...: I'm so confused. They replaced the foc'sle with a keel? Is this part of movie magic? Like the part in Jaws where the boat was half submerged?; January 16, 2011 at 6:24 PM
LL said...: This is a genuinely engineered sinking boat. The way the lines hang down from the mast (about 1/2) a mast make it cooler. Bottom line: Some people have too much time on their hands.; January 17, 2011 at 8:49 AM

Welcome to the Machine!

This blog has many elements and depending on your interests, may pique your imagination...or not. I urge you to be unreasonable. Reasonable people adapt themselves to the world. The unreasonable persist in trying to adapt the world to themselves, therefore all progress depends on unreasonable people. The more unreasonable you are, the more likely you are to enjoy this blog. All men dream, but not equally.

If you're a socialist or a Marxist, you'll find that I poke fun at your absurd notions of "good government" on a regular basis. So you might not wish to follow this blog because you'll be offended.

John Locke said, "One unerring mark of the love of truth is not entertaining any proposition with greater assurance than the proofs it is built upon will warrant." I like what Locke said. We can't theorize without adequate information because when we do we inevitably twist facts to suit theories rather than theories to suit facts. In this blog and in my life, I try to maintain this perspective.

Either you believe in our essential spark of shared divinity, or you succumb to our human insecurity. Either way your conscience lets you slice it, the main thing is to earnestly do what is right at the time.

This is My Journey.
